Having spent the last months working with the likes of Cage The Elephant and Alex Da Kid, Kelsy Karter steps out today with new single “God Knows I’ve Tried” a searingly personal rock&roll track showcasing Kelsy Karter’s gorgeous vocal over a twanging guitar lead arrangement. Speaking on the track, the New Zealand born, LA based artist states:
“I’ve spent my whole life being rebellious and doing what people told me not to do. And when you have that kind of spirit, somebody always gets hurt. I guess “God Knows I’ve Tried” is just my apology letter in the form of a rock&roll ballad.”
Having picked up support from the likes of i-D, EW and KCRW on her early releases, “God Knows I’ve Tried” sees Karter moving away from the musical lane she felt pushed into and straight into rock&roll, the music she loves.
